I dare anything!!! Sorry I just don't get the love people have for him. I like him just like all NA characters but I just don't get the big appeal to him. Nice to see these responses. Based on what others I had seen posted on the boards I was beginning to wonder if anyone actually wanted any of the Galactic Guardians besides Flipshot and Hydron. Nice to see I was wrong and nice to see my personal fav Spinwit getting a little love here.

Well Slush Head has a great design and is one of the most important mutants in NA. Slush Head is like Beastman of NA.
He has water inside his helmet! How cool is that?!

But anyway this is not about good ol' Slushy. This is about the Galactic Guardians and I am glad you asked the question cause I too was afraid nobody liked them. But I can see that is not the case.

I hope to see a lot of them show up in this line.

Hell yeah!! Bring on Mara.
With the basic female body she would not be to hard to pull off.

I liked the toga Mara better. I don't hate "Warrior Mara" but I prefer Mara's look as Master Sebrian's assistant.

I would've liked both. But unfortunately assistant Mara is off limits.
As is her toon warrior version. They need to stick to the proto design.

Now I don't know how they are going to be able to leave her midriff exposed using the standard female body. As we all know thanks to Tallstar the standard female MOTUC body doesn't have a midriff section.

Huh, that's weird. I thought for sure Teela would have abs under there. I guess they thought no females in MOTUC would need to show their midriff... so either they forgot about Mara or didn't plan to release her.

It's still possible for Mara to have an exposed abdomen. Her "dress" will have a bare abdomen sculpted on it. The two piece outfit will be sculpted on the dress and the middle part will be sculpted and painted like bare skin. Problem solved.

First Darius since we never got him back in the day and I always wanted him when I was a kid...

Second then Kayo/Tatarus, who was my first NA-figure back in the day and I'd love to get an updated version of him!! He's also the one Guardian that I most easily can see MotUC-ized - because out of all the NA-figures he especially always needed to be bulkier than the figure turned out to be... He needs to get muscles!!
He's actually my favourite Guardian.
And actually I think he'll be first, because Toyguru hinted the first one wouldn't be expected to come first, so it won't be Darius or Optikk, and probable neither Slushhead, Hydron or Flipshot who all are known to be more popular NA-characters... So mark my word: The first will be Kayo/Tatarus!
I'm damn curious whether or not I'll turn out to be right about that!!

Bland Galactic Protectors for MOTUC

First let me say that I think it is awesome that the NA characters so far are all looking great in MOTUC, and are righting the wrongs that were made many years ago when Mattel decided to make the 1989-1992 NA figures a different scale to the original MOTUs...

All of the Space Mutants, I think, will look great classics-ified...and a majority of the Galactic Protectors will also

That being said, I must admit I am quite worried about 3 of the Galactic Protectors in particular...because, let's be honest, they have nothing particularly interesting going on

The 3 main culprits here are -

KAYO (TARTARUS)

(although with his space helmet, he could look a little like a space medieval knight, so that's okay)

VIZAR

Boring!
(Although his alternate concept character DETECTOR looks a lot more interesting with his red cape, so I think he'll look good in classics)

NOCTURNA

Super Boring!!

If I was the Four Horseman, I would be loosing sleep over what on earth I would do to improve these super boring characters...and I'm sure if they are reading this they are biting their fingernails in fear and would appreciate any help from us fans!!!

I had a thought that Nocturna could be made out of a color changing plastic (like SDCC Orko?) which would work nicely for his shadowy camouflage feature, and make him a little more special
